I’m not sure how relevant this review is because I took this class online during the spring Covid-2020 outbreak. To be honest, I had some very difficult courses that spring quarter and Mousavi’s class was able to balance out my workload. Your overall grade is based on the midterm and final. Both exams which both consist of short essay answers. Some I’m not sure how relevant this review is because I took this class online during the spring Covid-2020 outbreak.

Both exams consist of short essay answers. Some of the readings can help you for the exams, but you really need to be in class for his lectures and take notes. This class is basically a history course about the Sassanian Empire in Iran from 224-651. It covers the rise of the Empire, it’s regional archaeological sites, the Empires battles with Rome, and each successive King until it’s collapse. I was very was skeptical about taking this class at first, but it seemed to have good reviews on Bruinwalk and I’m glad I did take it.

He is awesome, just study his note and you'll be fine. Short answer questions for the midterm and the final and he gives 80 and above an A.

Take the class. Before the midterm and the final you're going to hate yourself and feel like you've put yourself on overload (especially if you wait to the last minute like me) but learn the material, be good at chronology and names. He is a very kind grader and he really wants all his students to do well. ABSOLUTELY do not cheat because he will catch you. He is a great professor and I'm happy I took 2 quarters or Iranian Civilization with him.
